As ThinkProgress.org reported in 2012, emergency contraception (Plan B) works exactly like birth control. Plan B prevents a woman from becoming pregnant before fertilization (with an increased amount on estrogen), which is when pro-life advocates such as Dr. Dobson claim life begins. Plan B does not prevent the implantation of a fertilized egg into the wall of the uterus.

However, in an interview with LifeNews.com, Dr. Dobson and the Alliance Defending Freedom still claimed Obamacare has an "abortion pill mandate." The Alliance Defending Freedom has made the same false "abortion-causing pill" claim on its website.

According to RightWingWatch.org, today on his "Family Talk" radio show, Dr. Dobson, son Ryan Dobson (pictured above) and his lawyer Martin Nussbaum parroted the same false claims and promised to close down the ministry before providing contraception for women (audio below).

"How dare the government do that do us!" yelled Dr. Dobson. "These principles that we believe in are more important to us than our own lives!"

"...It's important to stand up for righteousness in the culture and to save the lives of millions of babies that are going to be killed because of this," claimed Ryan Dobson. "We have to do this."

"...Well, we will close the doors if we have to do this!" added Dr. Dobson. "Rather than be complicit in the killing of babies, we will go away. I mean, it's as simple as that."
